Introduction: Trophic ulcers of the lower extremities are an unresolved problem of modern medicine. The treatment of this pathology requires new methods that optimize care regimens and improve patients’ quality of life. Aim: The study to improve efficacy of treatment of the patients with trophic ulcers of the lower limbs with consideration to pathogenesis. M aterials and Methods: The study included 32 patients with chronic venous disease C6 (1st group) and 31 with diabetes mellitus type 2, moderate severity, compensation stage with diabetic foot syndrome II stage according to Wagner’s classification (2nd group). In addition to basic therapy in both groups photodynamic therapy was added at the first stage of the study, and at the second stage plasma rich in growth factors was prescribed. Results: At baseline evaluating of the chronic venous disease demonstrates that a total score in patient of the 1st group was 20,9 points on a modified VCSS scale; after two weeks – 15,71 points (improvement by 24.83%), and 6 weeks after–9,72 points (improvement by 53.49%). In patients with DM (2nd group) at the baseline a total score average was 13,91 points according to S(AD)SAD-1 scale; after 2 weeks – 12,29 (improvement by 11,65%), after 6 weeks – 6,39 points (improvement by 54,06%). Conclusions: The inclusion of photodynamic therapy and plasmatherapy in complex therapy in both groups led to a significant improvement of the healing process and helps to reduce the depth and area of the wound surface. However, the wound healing in patients in group 2 was slower.

OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate the role of poikilocytosis in the acne vulgaris comorbidity with demodicosis and functional gallbladder disorder. PATIENTS AND METHODS Materials and methods: The study included 140 people with a diagnosis of moderate acne: group 1 - patients with AV, group 2 - patients with AV + Demodicosis, group3- AV + Demodicosis + functional gallbladder disorder (FGD). Biochemical analysis of lipid profile and liver enzymes, bilirubin was performed with semi-automatic analyzer HUMALYZER 3000. Scanning electron microscopy was performed using scanning electron microscope PEI-106I "SELMI". Ultrasound investigation was carried out by the SonoScape S6Pro US-diagnostic system with 3 - 5 MHz Ultrasound Probe Transducer С354. RESULTS Results: The most significant changes in blood erythrocytes morphology were observed in patients with comorbidity of acne, demodicosis and FGD with highest increasing of deformed erythrocytes up to 21%, mainly due to echinocytes І, ІІ order. Correlation analysis has revealed a strong direct association r = +0.75 (p < 0.05) between the poikilocytosis and comorbidity of acne vulgaris with demodicosis and FGD. CONCLUSION Conclusions: A strong direct association between acne vulgaris comorbid pathology and the increased number of deformation shapes of erythrocytes confirms the impact of FGD on morphological characteristics of erythrocytes and developing of poikilocytosis.
